LESSON FOR APRIL 4
SAUL REJECTED BY THE LORD.
LlMSSON TEXT-I Samuel 15:10-23.
GOLDEN TEXT-BIjold, to obey is bet
ter than sacrifice.-I Samuel 15:22.
Jonathan's victory (ch. 14) brough
with it a sinning on the part of th
hungry, harassed Israelites in tha
they ate of the spoils "with the blood'
(14:31, 32; Lev. 3:17, 7:26). In thf
emergency Saul erected "the 'first al
tar that lie built unto the Lord" (cl
14:35), a rather dilatory act on th
part of a God-anointed king. Saul hat
resorted to the subterfuge of com
manding the people "to roll a grea
stone," i.e., cut the throats of the ani
mals of which they had eaten tha1
they might bleed, and thus be an evi
dence that the animals had died be
fore being eaten. This the people did
fearing Saul, but having no scruplei
in transgressing God's commands
These same people rescued Jonathat
from the foolish vow of Saul, for 11
was his faith and valor that had chief
ly brought about the victory.
I. God's Sorrow, vv. 10-12. Samue
had first revealed God's purpose it
making Saul king, and likewise firs
declared God's purpose to dispose o
Saul (v. 10). Saul's actions (vv. 1-9
had stamped him as being no longe
worthy of God's confidence. -Th
word "repenteth," meaning "to sigh
(v. -11), denotes a change of feelin
due to Saul's actions and not to an:
change in the character, purpose o
desires of Good. God was sorry tha
Saul had proved himself unworthy
A half-way obedience of God's con
mand only heightened his guill
"Whatever moral difficulti6s seem t
lie, for a later age, in Saul's commis
sion against Amalek, there were non
such for him" (Vaughn). Man's re
pentance involves a change of min(
and purpose. In Saul's case God re
pented, changed the instrument of hii
execution, because of the change o
circumstances and relation. God ii
ever the same; it is man alone whi
changes. Saul had given Samue
cause for anger (v. 11 R. V.), but h,
did the wise thing in taking it to Go,
in prayer. Arising early the nex
morning Samuel hastened to acquain
Saul with Jehovah's message. It I
remarkable of how many of the grea
men of the Bible it is said that the
rose early, Abraham, Gideon, Joshul
Job, Jacob, Moses, etc., not to forge
our Lord Jesus.
II. Samuel's Rebuke, vv. 13-19. 1
must have been a striking scene whe
the aged Nazarite prophet faced th
proud but recreanit king. A guilt
conscience is often covered by a grea
show or piety (v. 13), but such act
cannot stifle the conviction of th
heiirt nor deceive the righteous judgi
Sin proclaims itself even as Samuel'
sharp question brought convictio:
from the lips of Saul (v. 14; Prol
28:13). Saul thought to deceive San
nel by using a falsehood (v. 15). The
only safe course is to confess ou
sins (Ps. 32:15; I. John 1:9). There
is an interesting suggestion in thi
way Saul uses the impersonal "they
and "we" in verse 15, as if to la:
the guilt of his acts upon others. I
Is easy for the sinner to -blame other
and seek to minimize his own gull
(Rem. 14:12). Verse 9 clearly ix
dicates wihy Saul and the people has
spared the best of the cattle. To us
a part only for God and the rest fo
self In direct disobedience to God'
rights or the rights of others 1s t
incur his righteous wrath (vv. 22, 23:
liI. Saul's Self-Rejection, vv, 20.2:
God set Saul aside because he hla
rejected the right and chose th
wrong. Face to face with .his si
Saul could not dodge tile Issue. San
uel's "wherefore" (v. 19) must hav
aroused Saul's guilty conscience.
is a question which should reach ever
tempted soul. Samuel characterize
Saul's sin as being due to stubborm
ness, rebellion, disobedience and a r4
jection of God (v. 19). Again Sat
seeks to evade his responlsibility (v'
20, 21). Then Samuel speaks plainl
(v. 22) comparing his sin of disobed
ence 'with witchcraft, stubbornnesj
Iniquity and Idolatry. Plainly he tell
Saul, "Because thou hast rejected th
wvord of the Lord, he hath also rejec
ed thee from being king" (v. 23).
Driven thus to a corner Saul mad
a confession of his guilt (v. 24) bu
spoiled it all by acknowledging tha
he had greater fear of the people tha
of God.
This is Easter Sunday, our reproac
has been removed, not at Gilgal bu
on Calvary. The unchanging Go
hates sin, which is unchangeable, ha
condlemnedl It on the Cross that th
guilty sinner may live.
The persistence of sin, the ur
changeableness of God and his ur
yielding hatred of sin are met by th
culmination of Easter for, "Bly th
obedience of one shall many be mad
righteous" (Rlom. 5:19).
The whole root of Saul's troubi
was his attitude towards the word c
God. Every man's destiny hinge
upon what lie does with the Ivin
Incarnate Word.
The r'esurrectionl of Jesus Is th
seal of his authority, the evidence c
his power and our eternal salvatlo)
depends upon01 what we do with hin:
